Abstract

Numerical evaluation is performed on an MHD stream of a Maxwell fluid preceding a stretching sheet in the effects of the heat source and chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into dimensionless momentum, energy, and concentration equations and are solved numerically by using the explicit finite difference method (EFDM) by applying the Compact Visual FORTRAN 6.6 programming algorithm. Stability and convergence test are investigated aimed at the accuracy of the scheme. Through the initial and boundary conditions  and for  

the scheme is concentrated for Prandtl number   respectively. The executed outcomes are obtained for the values of different dimensionless parameters on velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles besides the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, isotherms and streamlines, respectively. Our main aim is to find out the behavior of the flow characteristic of the Maxwell parameter. At the termination, the behavior of outgoing parameters is marked by using graphics software TECPLOT-9 and discussed with the help of graphs.
